you are contradicting yourself
the diagram shows you send 24 channels
you agreed you can only send 24 channels
that verified my statement and the diagram
we are not talking total in and out
the OPer wanted to send to his PC
and the Qu32 only sends 24 channels
as you and the block diagram both agreed to
so confounding the discussion with total channels
when we are discussing SEND via USB nr. of channels is not helpful
The QU sends 32 out USB/B and receives 32 IN USB/B
Its a fixed format
32/32
@volounteer - Please let us know if and where the documentation is incorrect so it can be put right. Note that the block diagram on pg88 is for the Qu-16, while the block diagram for the Qu-24/Qu-32 is shown on pg89.
@Driller - Both the Qu and SQ series are class compliant and confirmed working/supported on macOS 11 (Big Sur) along with M1 hardware.
Cheers!
Keith.
and the Qu32 only sends 24 channels as you and the block diagram both agreed to
sorry, but this makes me think you are trying to upset me
neither me nor the block diagram for the QU-32 show other than 32 send and 32 receives
all the time
if you take my statements out of context it’s easy to mix up some things…
since some statements are just answers to your wrong assumptions
and refer to the Qu-16 or the Qu-24
so confounding the discussion with total channels when we are discussing SEND via USB nr. of channels is not helpful
USB-B Qu-16 > 24 inputs 22 outputs Qu-24 > 32 inputs 30 outputs Qu-32, Qu-PAC, QU-SB share the same core > 32 input 32 output SQ Series > 32 input 32 output
the PC sees 24 inputs from the Qu16, 32 inputs from the others
and sends 22 outputs to the Qu-16, 30 outputs to the Qu-24 and 32 Outputs to all other QU models
@KeithJ A&H
That could be the mixup.
I downloaded the manual and searched for block diagram.
Thought it said it was for the 24/32 not 16 when I tried to read it sideways on the screen.
Maybe I got the other one when I adjusted the size and scrolled to see the usb output.
@Keith
Thanks for confirming that Keith, that’s reassuring to know. I appreciate it’s difficult to update a website too often but it would be nice if this info was made clearly available in the product data on the website. If it is and I’ve missed it, my apologies!
@Keith
Ps Forgot to say: for info, searching for “QU/SQ USB Big Sur” comes up with nothing on Google so it’s good this info is now in the public domain.
An update: I got a QU 24 in the end as the SQ6, lovely though it is, would have been overkill for a one band desk.
I can confirm that the QU24 streaming is absolutely bullet proof and works perfectly with a brand new Macbok pro 16" running the latest macOS (Monterey). I should have known really and am slightly ashamed that I ever doubted an A&H product.
I can also confirm that, as Steffen said, the QU24 will stream 32 inputs and 30 outputs.
All in all the QU24 is a fantastic bit of kit that I’m extremely happy with and was a great step up from the WZ4, albeit a great console in it’s own right. Thank you A&H!
